Mass. governor speaks on the French & Indian War...
THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, July 15, 1760
- Governor Thomas Pownall speech
- Province of Massachusetts Bay
- French and Indian War
One-third of page 5 is taken up with news reports headed: "America" with Boston datelines.
Most of the report is a speech by the governor concerning the ongoing French & Indian War, one bit noting: "...his Majesty having nothing so much at heart as to improve the great & important advantages gained the last campaign in North America..." and much more.
Eight pages, 8 1/4 by 11 inches, very nice condition.
